Worcester man, 20, dies after being stabbed in neck at house party

WORCESTER 
Boris M. Velez II, 20, the city man stabbed twice in the neck at a Sherbrook Avenue house party Saturday morning, has died.

Mr. Velezís mother confirmed Monday night that her son died from his wounds. She declined further comment outside her home.

When police responded to a report of a large fight at 35 Sherbrook Ave. around 1:20 a.m. Saturday, they were told that a stabbing victim had been taken to an area hospital. Mr. Velez was rushed into surgery, and remained in critical condition Sunday morning. His mother did not say when he died.

Roughly 25 people attended the drinking party, many of them under the age of 21, police said. The man who police said threw the party, Marc R. Aldana, 20, of 205 Salisbury St., was arrested for disturbing the peace.
